On Saturday, Nov. 11, Northville Downs will be honouring the horses lost and the horsemen and women who lost everything in the tragic barn fire Thursday, Nov. 9 at Tioga Downs.
Horsemen and women at Northville Downs have the option of dressing their horses in red throughout the Saturday program.
“The colour red represents love and it only seemed appropriate for us to send our love and support to our friends at Tioga Downs, with whom many of our local horsepeople have deep connections with. It is a horrid tragedy and no one should ever have to endure such pain and loss,” said track announcer Ken Terpenning.
In addition to the ‘red out’ night, a moment of silence will take place following the fourth race.
To donate, details on a Gofundme account can be found here.
Northville Downs races every Friday and Saturday night from now through Nov. 25, 2023 with a 7 p.m. first race post time each night.
